Pretending like what's honestly an almost-TOO-obvious anti-authority script just doesn't exist because the real-life ties to the USAF automatically override it is also pretty disingenuous

The broad theme of "discipline and training and teamwork make you a better person" is a very old and common theme in movies with any kind of moralizing bent aimed at "family" audiences, including in most other MCU movies It was actually shocking to see it so thoroughly rejected

Like to me it's a big fucking deal that the ending of the movie is Carol betraying and turning on her whole squad, without hesitation, that it absolutely crumples up and throws away the whole battle-buddies "We're a family because of what we've been through together" shit

You're not reading what I say carefully, I'm not saying audiences rejected the movie Captain Marvel I'm saying Captain Marvel rejects the implicitly pro-community pro-authority mindset of almost all family adventure stories

So again we're gonna take the few bones tossed to the normies to keep them from completely rejecting the movie as a reason to judge the movie as not being subversive at all

Her relationship with the Skrulls, or Nick Fury, or even Maria and her kid, is *nothing* like a "family" movie like Guardians of the Galaxy The ending of the movie is her abandoning all of these people to fly off on her own and finish her mission by herself as she sees fit
